Because the campus is shared, students can take their general education program courses \u2013 like English, math and science \u2013 with a Valencia faculty member and attend general education courses with Valencia students, all at the downtown campus. Valencia faculty who teach downtown co-listed courses receive academic credentialing by UCF, and these courses are listed in transcripts as UCF courses but are offered at the reduced state college course rate. That means more money for your books and student needs!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ready to register?<\/strong> When searching for classes at UCF Downtown, co-listed courses will be indicated in the \u201cClass Notes\u201d section of <a href=\"https:\/\/my.ucf.edu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">my.ucf.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What about academic appeals?<\/strong> UCF students enrolled in UCF Downtown co-listed courses with Valencia College follow the <a href=\"https:\/\/goldenrule.sdes.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/64\/2021\/03\/2020-2021-Golden-Rule.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">UCF Golden Rule<\/a> for Academic Appeals (see section 5.016).
